Professional appearance is an important aspect of the overall preparation of BPA members for the business world. So students represent Oklahoma BPA and the National BPA Association in a professional and business-like manner with the highest of professional standards this dress code has been established. It is the responsibility of the chapter advisors to ensure students adhere and comply with the established dress code. Students, advisors, and chaperones must follow the dress code.

Oklahoma BPA does not require the official BPA blazer for competition, and students not wearing the official BPA blazer will not be penalized during any competition. However, strict adherence to these guidelines is mandatory for conference attendees while attending conference functions. These functions include, but are not limited to: competitions, official BPA meetings, and award ceremonies.

There are two divisions of dress code: Professional Dress and Business Casual. Professional dress is required while competing, while on stage, or attending any official Oklahoma BPA meeting or event. Business Casual is designed for any time other than when professional dress is required. While on conference property students are required to adhere to this dress code at all times. When students are not competing, presenting, or attending an official Oklahoma BPA function they must still dress in a manner that is appropriate representation of Oklahoma BPA. Students not adhering to or in question of this official dress code policy will not be allowed on stage to receive an award. All decisions are final by state staff regarding dress code. Judges will assess each contestant’s dress during competition. The student will have a point deduction for not following the appropriate dress code.

Local advisors, please review this dress code with your students prior to attending the conference. Oklahoma BPA wants every student to have the opportunity to succeed and be recognized on stage, but students will be denied the privilege to attend events and appear on stage if they are dressed inappropriately.
